Patient's question:
Actually, it's usually okay, but I always get sick after my period. The specific symptoms are itching in the private area and a heavy, painful feeling in the lower abdomen. Is this a sign of inflammation? How does endometritis occur?Doctor's answer:
Hello, endometritis can be divided into tuberculous and non-tuberculous types, and it is an important factor leading to infertility. Acute endometritis is often caused by cross-infection during childbirth or intrauterine and uterine surgery. If the treatment is not thorough or timely, it may become chronic. It is characterized by congestion, edema, and inflammatory exudate in the endometrium, and may even form ulcers. Common symptoms include increased leukorrhea, purulent blood-like discharge, foul odor, lower abdominal pain, and lower back pain. It can develop into conditions such as myometritis, tubo-ovarian abscess, pelvic peritonitis, pelvic connective tissue inflammation, sepsis, and bacteremia. For patients with endometritis, in addition to medication to alleviate symptoms, it is also necessary to pay attention to self-care.
